“Shine On,” kicks this album off in grand style. Flowering through with strong riffs and even stronger melodies, a powerful entrance into the world. “Fiesta Y Copas,” is a shredder. A song that shows off all the great melodies of the past. It rocks and rolls, and it has plenty of swagger. “Santa Muerte,” is an absolute corker. Taking its lines from the bass drum that beats the shit out of the listener’s ears, it soon moves into overdrive on the guitar front. A driving rhythm gets things going and soon enough the band are in overdrive. “Last Exit Hell,” pounds the pavement, bringing with it some serious machoness, and driving the term around the plains. “What Went Wrong,” gallops through the sound, and delivers a performance that is most magical. “Lucky 13,” continues this journey, slowly building up an atmosphere that soon explodes into a rocking measurement. “Death Letter,” bluesy and thoughtful, what a tune to get things to go to.
“Craving,” snaps the deck, with harmonies galore and a melody that truly packs a punch. What a way to get things going. “The Wolf,” another beast of a song that grooves and rocks and truly just delivers something precious and also somewhat intimidating. “Misty Mountain,” a rocker and a slider, one that crushes through the vogue and ensures that the listener knows just where to go. “The Ballad of Jack,” is thoughtful and powerful, a song that keeps the listener engaged throughout. Simply epic. “Stormy Night,” swaggers through. What a way to finish a great album.
The record is out on September 13th via AFM Records.
